The iCAR V25 is a compact pure-electric and extended-range (EREV) off-road SUV from Chery’s young-oriented iCAR brand. Combining iconic retro-futuristic "boxy" styling with robust body protection, modern smart cockpit technology, and an intelligent dual-motor electric 4WD system, it is designed for both urban commuting and rugged outdoor adventures.
Positioned as a personalized light-off-road SUV within the iCAR V-series lineup, the iCAR V25 carries forward the brand's rugged aesthetic with short front and rear overhangs, high ground clearance, an external rear "backpack" spare tire/storage box, and muscular wheel arches. Its high-angle approach and departure geometry make it well-suited for all-terrain capability.
Powertrain & Off-Road Performance
Dual-Power Options (BEV & EREV): Offered in both Pure Electric (BEV) and Extended Range Electric Vehicle (EREV) configurations. The EREV variant pairs a 1.5L dedicated range-extender engine with high-efficiency electric drive motors, offering zero range anxiety for long-distance overland trips.
Smart Electric 4WD: Equipped with an intelligent dual-motor AWD system featuring electronic terrain response modes, hill descent control, and high torque output for crawling through mud, snow, and unpaved trails.
Smart Cabin & Outdoor Versatility
The interior centers on a rugged yet high-tech design, featuring a large floating HD central screen powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset, tactile physical control dials, multiple vehicle-to-load (V2L) external power sockets, and integrated modular mounting points for camping accessories.
